Speed

1 to fix74
  • Mobile performance score: 74

    74/100

    Your mobile performance score is 74 (desktop: 100). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    150 ms · 220 KiB

    19 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (220 KiB).

  • Reduce unused CSS

    29 KiB

    About 29 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    23 KiB

    About 23 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • 1 third-party service on the page

    1 third-party service load with your homepage (edit.site), adding 122 KiB and 0 ms of main-thread time.

  • Phones get a much slower page than desktops

    Desktop scores 100 but mobile only 74. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.

  • Chained critical requests

    Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 0.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 71 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 3 ms

    3 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 3 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

2 to fix67
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.89

    0.89

    The layout shifts by 0.89 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.8 s

    1.8 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Not enough real-visitor data yet

    Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.

4 checks passed
  • Speed Index: 2.7 s

    2.7 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 2.7 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 1.8 s

    1.8 s

    Your largest element renders in 1.8 s on a phone, inside Google's 2.5 s “good” threshold. The largest element is the text “For over 145 years, Wernle has been a place of hope and hea…”.

  • Total Blocking Time: 0 ms

    0 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Time to Interactive: 1.8 s

    1.8 s

    The page is fully interactive after 1.8 s.

Images and page weight

100
  • About 0.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.22 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.22 g of CO₂e: 26.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

4 checks passed
  • Page weight: 792 KiB in 26 requests

    792 KiB

    Your homepage downloads 792 KiB in 26 requests on a phone: other files 535 KiB (6), fonts 119 KiB (6) and scripts 68 KiB (6). That is a lean page.

  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

3 to fixGoogle 6889
  • Images must have alternative text (1 element)

    Images must have alternative text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.

  • 2 text elements with low contrast

    2 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • Documents must have <title> element to aid in navigation (1 element)

    Documents must have <title> element to aid in navigation: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 24 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 28 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 24 passed and 4 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 7768
  • No page title

    Your page has no <title>, so Google has to invent the blue link in search results.

  • No meta description

    No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • No structured data

    No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • 8 internal links, 2 external

    The homepage links to 8 pages on wernle.org and 2 external pages.

4 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Wernle Youth and Family Foundation”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://wernle.org/.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://wernle.org/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix83
  • No Organization structured data

    There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.

  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://wernle.org/llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.

1 checks passed
  • AI answer engines may read the site

    Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.

Other pages

3 to fix71
  • 3 pages without a title

    https://wernle.org/about, https://wernle.org/contacts and https://wernle.org/privacy-and-cookies-policy have no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.

  • 4 pages without a meta description

    https://wernle.org/layout-1, https://wernle.org/about, https://wernle.org/contacts and https://wernle.org/privacy-and-cookies-policy have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 2 pages without an H1

    https://wernle.org/contacts and https://wernle.org/privacy-and-cookies-policy have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 4 internal pages checked

    We fetched 4 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

3 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 4 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

Best practices

Google 100100
2 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

5 to fix63
  • No call to action on the first screen

    On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.

  • Local business without LocalBusiness data

    Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 1 testimonial or review block. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • No analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • Only about 127 words

    The homepage has only about 127 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • No opening hours

    The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

  • No form on the homepage

    There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

  • No map or directions link

    There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

  • No risk reducer

    No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

3 checks passed
  • 1 call to action

    The homepage has 1 call to action, for example “Contact Us”.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 0 phone links and 2 email links.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage.

Privacy and tracking

  • 1 cookie set on arrival

    1

    Opening the homepage sets 1 cookie (measured from a US location before any click).

  • No consent tool detected

    No known cookie consent tool loads with the page. Some sites build their own banner, and some only show one to visitors from the EU.

  • 3 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 3 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

Security, domain, email and software versions

The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at wernle.org, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
